Well, that's what the request is about, isn't? Ignoring anonymous posts.

No, it was not about ignoring them, but about making it completely impossible to reply anonymously to a node.

The next step might be to make it completely impossible to be anonymous. Which I would not like.

I think this site is very tolerant, of which this thread is a good example: it is polite, substantial, humorous, informative. No insults.

As for anonymous monk teasing, well, I haven't seen much 'teasing'. Insults, yes. Teasing? Nope. Besides, only cowards tease anonymously.

No teasing? Oh?. Your threshold for considering something an insult might be a bit lower than mine. I think "coward" is a very big word, somewhat insulting. And regarding insults or demeaning stuff, let the innocent ones throw the first stone, brick, pebble, rock (lets not do a menhir).

And yes, some anonymous posts are brilliant, but some non-anonymous posts are as well. Being anonymous isn't necessary to post a brilliant article.

So? The Worst Nodes of all time contains no posts of anonymous monks (neither does Best Nodes of all time). You don't have a point here.

Too much fuss about anonimity. Really.
